Mar-05-06 R Cardoso vs Ivkov, 1973

| apoorv: Wow! This is probably the easiest Sunday puzzle I have ever seen. I did Qf4+ and so on. There seem to be a lot of ways in which black can win. |

Jan-18-06 Marshall vs Capablanca, 1914
| |
| apoorv: This is the hardest Wednesday puzzle I have ever seen. At first, the best I could do was Kg2. Even after I saw Bg4, I didn't think it was completely winning since black gets 3 pawns for his bishop. |

Dec-20-05 Krauthauser vs H Herrmann, 1934
| |
| apoorv: very true, that's why i never tried it before (but i play king's gambit where black has to be wary of opening traps) |

Dec-18-05 W Jordan vs H Hofstetter, 1999
| |
| apoorv: i see no win within five moves for black, why the heck did the game end here? white's pawn structure is better |

Nov-27-05 Velimirovic vs J Fridjonsson, 1974
| |
| apoorv: i didn't look through all the variations but even OTB, i would've played Rxh7, since it seems to win (looks a lot less complex than what actually happened in the game |

| |
| apoorv: i thought of Qf4, and i see no way how it loses, threathening Qf6# |

Nov-22-05 T Fogarasi vs D Breder, 2000
| |
| apoorv: i was looking for a checkmate, so completely missed the free queen (although i did look at Ra1+ and Bxb2+) 5 minutes wasted |
